Senator Ted Cruz

Well, Zelensky's Oval Office performance was disastrous. And listen, at some level, it's not complicated what he had to do. He was there to come to President Trump and seek his help. Seek his help, seek the United States to stand with him in some way, shape, and form in their war with Russia. And Zelensky is beleaguered. He is a wartime leader. He feels desperate.

But to be clear, the United States is also his principal patron, his funder, the person who has paid for the war for years, has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. And so in any sane and rational world, Zelensky would come into the Oval Office, hat in hand, would come into the Oval Office angry. Being grateful for the support that the United States has given.

And to be honest, kissing Trump's ass. I mean, this is not a complicated dynamic. And by the way, it's also not a new dynamic. I've been in a lot of Oval Office meetings. Just about every foreign leader comes in and treats the President of the United States with respect. That is incumbent on the office.

The United States is the world's leading superpower, and so foreign leaders, foreign heads of state, whether they like the President or not, they treat the President with respect. I will tell you, Any president, if there were a foreign leader who treated them the way Zelensky treated Trump, would have been pissed off and the consequences would have been bad.

With Trump, the consequences were spectacularly bad. And listen, one needn't be a forensic psychologist to understand that it is a really dumb idea. to go into a meeting with Donald Trump and insult him and condescend him and attack him. If you do that, Ben, I can actually give out the probabilities to amazing precision.

If you attack and insult Donald Trump, the chances that he will punch back are 100.000%.
